Kirkby Green is a small village in the North Kesteven district of Lincolnshire, England. The village lies east from Scopwick on the B1191 road to Timberland, 10 miles (16 km) south-east from the county town of Lincoln, 6.5 miles (10.5 km) south-west from Woodhall Spa, and 8 miles (13 km) north from Sleaford.[1]
Kirkby Green was formerly a civil parish until 1931, when it became part of the parish of Scopwick.[2]
At the eastern end of the village is a level crossing where the road crosses the Peterborough to Lincoln Line, formerly the site of Scopwick and Timberland railway station.
